விலங்கொடு மக்கள் அனையர் இலங்குநூல்
கற்றாரோடு ஏனை யவர்

Comparing who learnt classical literature with others,
is alike animals with people

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: Comparing those who learnt the literature that develop rational, with the rest, is on par to the comparison between people and animals.

(Likewise…)

Comparing those who conduct the reign that give life to the weaker people, with the rest, is equal to the comparison between gold and brass.
